Suppose the parallel sides of the trapezium are a and b units where a < b. Then the fraction of the area of the trapezium that is the rhombus is a/[(a+b)/2] = 2a/(a+b).

How many rhombus can fit in a trapezoid?
1 1/2
What are the differences between a trapezoid and a rhombus?
trapazoid has 1 set parallel lines and a rhombus has 2 sets of parallel lines
Is a rhombus is a trapezoid?
Technically, yes - a trapezoid is a four-sided figure with two parallel sides. A rhombus is a four-sided figure with two pair of parallel sides. A rhombus might be described as a special trapezoid since it does have two parallel sides, but others might argue against such an interpretation.Likewise, a square could be described as a special rhombus (or a very special trapezoid), since a square is a four-sided figure with two pair of parallel sides AND four right angles.
How many rhombuses and triangles make a trapezoid?
1 rhombus 4-5 triangles
Are all trapezoids rhombuses?
No, a trapezoid has only 1 pair of parallel lines exactly. In a rhombus, all lines are parallel and congruent.
What fraction of the trapezoid do 1 triangle and 1 rhombus cover?
That all depends on the dimensions of the trapezoid you're working with.
If the red trapezoid is the whole what fraction of the whole is 1 blue rhombus?
1/2
What is different about a trapezoid than a rhombus?
a trapezoid has only 1 parrellel side and a rhombus has 2
What does one trapezoid equal in a fraction?
One trapezoid is 1 and, as a fraction, that is 1/1
How many rhombus can fit in a trapezoid?
1 1/2
What are the differences between a trapezoid and a rhombus?
trapazoid has 1 set parallel lines and a rhombus has 2 sets of parallel lines
What shape has 4 sides but 1 right angle?
Rhombus, trapezoid, parallelogram
What is the fraction of rhombus?
1/3
What is the fraction of 2 hexagons and 1 trapezoid?
The fraction of 2 hexagons and 1 trapezoid would be represented as 2/3.
What are two differences trapaziod and a rhombus has?
All sides of a trapezoid cannot be congruent, all sides of a rhombus are congruent. All opposite sides of a rhombus are parallel, only 1 pair of opposite sides of a trapezoid are parallel, the other pair are cannot be parallel.
What fraction of the rhombus is the triangle?
It is 1/2
